Bad breath, plaque, and tartar might seem like normal parts of having a dog, but what if they're signs of something more? Your dog's oral health goes far beyond clean teeth, and understanding the bacteria living in their mouth could make a big difference in their overall health and well-being.
In this episode of the Canine Culture Podcast, host Brittany sits down with Dr. Emily Stein and Lindsey from TEEF Health to explore the science behind canine dental health, the oral microbiome, and a different approach to caring for your dog's teeth and gums.
Dr. Stein, a microbiologist and founder of TEEF, shares how her personal experiences with dental disease inspired her to develop a science-based approach to oral care. Together, they break down the relationship between bacteria, inflammation, plaque, and gum disease, while discussing why traditional dental care may not tell the whole story.
They also introduce TEEF, an easy-to-use oral care powder designed to support a healthier oral microbiome by influencing how bacteria behave. From puppies to senior dogs, they discuss how the product works, how to incorporate it into your dog's daily routine, and what pet parents should look for when monitoring their dog's oral health.
In this episode, we cover:
